President Muhammadu Buhari could not end his his speech at the MKO Abiola International Stadium, Kuto, Abeokuta.

The rally was abruptly ended after Buhari raised the hand of Dapo Abiodun, the APC governorship candidate in the state.

Immediately, the president raised Abiodun’s hand, some aggrieved persons threw objects towards his direction, forcing security operatives to form a ring around him.

The aggrieved persons had earlier pelted Adams Oshiomhole, national chairman of the ruling party, with stones and chased supporters of Abiodun from the stadium.
